Requirement for Switzerland
The Swiss Labour Law is applicable for all the companies that want to provide services locally; therefore, all companies shall obtain an authorization before scheduling any activity during Sunday (or during a Holiday)/Night.
At least 7 days before the beginning of the assignment
Based on the LL, art. 49 and OLL 1, art. 42, the authorization request must be submitted at least 7 days before the beginning of the temporary activity in Switzerland.
In addition, it is not possible to provide any service on a Sunday/Night without the final decision of the authorities.
Global Mobility compliance
When posting an employee abroad, the company should always assess any requirements applicable to the specific assignment in advance.
Should a company decide to begin activities without obtaining the proper authorization, it may be at risk of potential damages to their reputation due to fines, as well as bans from providing service within Switzerland for up to 5 years.
